Coffee Club

[sourland]

Good morning. Coffee is brewed. @pennyJo1960 hope that you and the family are on the path to recovery.

Did you have a nice getaway?

Did you all have fun ?

We enjoyed ourselves. Went to Chincoteague/Assateague Island, Va. My favorite place in the world second only to home. The Island owns part of my soul.

Happy Friday!

DH went to Costco and bought almond poppy seed AND pumpkin streusel muffins at the same time I was at TJ's buying carrot cake muffins. We are awash in breakfast and dessert.
MUFFIN MANIA this morning!

Good morning! I saw one of my almost point of lay pullets go into a nest box, closely examine the egg there then carefully arrange her breast feathers and slowly sank down onto it. I never get tired of that kind of stuff!!!

You've lost your sense of taste and smell?

Losing your sense of taste is kind of like the ultimate insult when you are sick.

Not being able to enjoy a cup of coffee is just like plain wrong!

Glad you are the least sick of the three of you but sorry any of you are going through this. Sad the number of people who have a cold and think it's just a cold so hey, I'm not sick enough to stay home. Turns out they have covid and are spreading it everywhere.

I fear that the 'vaccine' is making covid less severe so that is what is happening with people....it's also why DH and I are still cloistered here at the farm and intend to stay that way. Only go out for doctor's appointments and then are masked in N95's. Still buying our groceries on line and having to pick them up at the curb. So far so good but we are ever vigilant.

@sourland, what fun! Do you get to see the wild Chincoteague ponies while you were there?

Yes, saw quite a few along the road into Assateague. Pony Penning was recent so I guess they still hadn't dispersed to their home ranges. Long ago the ponies had access to the ocean and would venture there when the flies got bad. Idiots not giving them enough space ruined that, and now they are fenced away from the 'people' areas. Saw a lot of foals left with the herds. I'm wondering if they are trying to increase the herd size.

Gee that would been really cool George.
So glad the two of you went.
